It seems these bricks were made in the late 1970s without Lego’s authorization, by rogue employees developing new types of plastic and experimenting with their molds and various plastic colors.

It is unknown just how many of these bricks were made, but they are extremely valuable, and in my opinion and many others, very beautiful.

      They said they’re going for upwards of $500 a brick, so 20 of them might set you back $10,000…

      Good luck though, if you get even one, make sure to post it for everyone to see.

        I’ve spent time on the high end MTG Facebook page. I’ve also glanced at the price tags on wh40k starter sets. Those numbers mean nothing to hardcore hobbyists.

        Unlikely. But they are both neat to look at and posessing of an interesting history.

        Makes you wish you could hold some.
